Pan 0.12.90 (July 9 2002) NEW FEATURES * Added a toolbar in the main window. * Restored, via the new toolbar, the much-missed single-click filter buttons from Pan 0.9.7. * Added the ability to restore, on startup, Tasks that were still queued the last time you exited Pan. * Added on-the-fly spellchecking in the compose window. Thanks to Evan Martin for writing gtkspell, the library that Pan uses to do this, and to Michael Alger, for contributing a patch to plug gtkspell into Pan. UPDATES * Eliminated the memory penalty for having tasks queued that operated on newsgroups other than the current newsgroup. This should make alt.binaries.* go much easier on system resources. * Flagging messages now works across all newsgroups. Previously articles could only be flagged for the current newsgroup. * Better support for non-standard Subject & Author headers containing 8bit characters. Thanks to Carl Hudkins, Kang Jeong-Hee and William Maddler for suggesting improvements in this area. (#80002, #81181 ,#85510) * We now use the locale to determine the group's default charset, rather than a hard-coded 'ISO-8859-1'. Thanks to Martin Tomasek for suggesting this.

BUG FIXES (sorted by age) * Fixed minor 0.11.3 memory leaks. * Fixed 0.11.3 bug that didn't allow i18n characters in users' From: headers in new posts.

(#65617) * Fixed long-standing bug that could cause Pan to crash if the grouplist file was corrupt. Thanks to Adam M for reporting this bug. (#72435) Pan 0.11.94 (June 7, 2002) UPDATES * Small UI improvments for copying articles to folders (#64867), watching/ignoring articles (#78006), and the `next article' button (#82724). * Many small memory and speed improvements.

(#80715) UPDATES * Tweak to `space reading': if a user selects an article without reading it, pressing the space key will then display that selected article. Likewise if a group selection changes, pressing the space key will jump to the selected group. Thanks to William Wu for reporting issues that led to this feature. (#81868) * Some menu cleanups: `space reading' is back in; a shortcut for `delete last task' has been added, and the menus are now compliant with the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines. * Decoding attachments takes less memory and much less disk space. * Minor speed improvements in startup and article reading. BUG FIXES * Fixed 0.11.91 bug that made tabbed-mode reading difficult to use. Thanks to Roman Moeller for reporting this bug. (#81726) * Fixed 0.11.90 problem that caused the text pane to scroll to the bottom of long articles when reading them in 'zoom' mode. Thanks to Kang Jeong Hee for reporting this bug.

(#81080) Pan 0.11.91 (April 28, 2002) NEW FEATURES * Added a user-configurable per-group default charset to use when converting messages that don't specify their own charset.

(#79275) * Added new preferences option to get new headers from subscribed groups automatically when starting Pan. UPDATES * Call bind_textdomain_codeset() when starting Pan to set the output codeset for message translations. Thanks to Kang JeongHee for suggesting this.

Thanks to jim at cosx for suggesting this. (#72015) * Added `%g' and `%G' substitution fields into the download directory path. If used these will be replaced with the.group.name/ and the/group/name/ when saving articles. Thanks to Hans Verkuil for this suggestion.

We still don't parse the HTML -- HTML has no place in Usenet -- but we at least show the message now. Thanks to Himanshu J. Gohel for reporting this bug. (#78723) * If an article was selected (for, say, a context menu operation), then clicking on the same article again wouldn't download & display the article; you had to double-click, which was nonintuitive. Now clicking on an already-selected article will download & display the article. Thanks to Dan Hensley for reporting this bug. (#78557) * Other miscellaneous changes (#79377) (#69390) Pan 0.11.3 (Apr 18, 2002) BUG FIXES * Fixed crash that occurred in the Japanese Locale.

Thanks to William Peterson for reporting this. (#76867) * Fixed bug that could incorrectly cause articles to become marked as read. Thanks to Jiri Kubicek for some great sleuthing to find and patch this bug. (#77878) * Fixed bug that was too strict on what Message-IDs to retain in a References: header when posting a follow-up. Thanks to Colin Leroy and Jim Henderson for reporting this bug. * Pan now uses GMT rather than local time when generating the timestamp for unique message ids of new posts. When using local time and daylight savins ends, a date could show up twice. Thanks to Mirko Liss for suggesting this. (#77528) * Fixed 0.11.1 branefart that moved widget focus to the thread pane, rather than the text pane, whenever a message was read via the 'N' key. Thanks to Florian Schmidt for reporting this bug. * Fixed some potential news server connection problems. Thanks to Sven Neuhaus for reporting these issues. (#73179) * Fixed gui lockup bug that occured when changing groups while the log viewer was open. (#77909) * The Filter Text in the Edit Rule dialog box now has a scrollbar when needed. Thanks to Himanshu J. Gohel for reporting this. (#62909) Pan 0.11.90 (April 5, 2002) NEW FEATURES * Better Internationalization: Pan can now finally display messages and headers in their appropriate charsets and fonts, as well as post messages in user-specified charsets. * Much Smaller Library Requirements: Pan 0.11.90 no longer requires Gnome. This is to make Pan easier to install on smaller systems, and to leave the door open for a Windows port of 0.12.0. We love Gnome and will be adding _optional_ Gnome features back soon. * New Filter UI: The article filter GUI has been changed so that it can all be driven from keyboard accelerators, so that several changes can be made at once for a single refiltering, and so that subject/author filters can be kept as the user changes from one group to another. * Better Display of Images: The awkwardness of combining text and inline images in 0.12.x has been cleaned up thanks to improvements in gtk2. Pan 0.11.2.91 (Mar 29 2002) NEW FEATURES * Added the ability to specify which characters are recognized as quote prefix characters, so nonconformists not using '>' to quote text will still have their articles colored right in Pan. :) Thanks to Colin Leroy for contributing this code. (#68159, 75916) * Added "Go to previous article" navigation button. Thanks to Colin Leroy for contributing this patch. (#75716) UPDATES * Add a new preference option, dictating whether failed tasks should be removed from the Task Manager. Unconditionally clearing the queue didn't go down too well with some of the leechers. ;-) Thanks to Aric S. Campling for suggesting this. (#75186) * Added support for mime articles which explicitly specify a Content-Transfer-Encoding of x-uuencode. Thanks to Sam Solon and Jeff Stedfast for this code. (#74798) * Make sure that the default window size is large enough that a full line, up to the default number of wrap characters and with the default font, will fit without scrolling. Thanks to John Mellor for suggesting this obvious-in-hindsight improvement. :) (#76062) BUG FIXES * Fixed a memory corruption bug in decoding yEnc messages. Thanks to Bill Cattell for reporting this bug. (#74946) * Fixed a crash that occurred when Pan couldn't connect to the news server. Thanks to Aurelien Gouny for reporting this bug. (#70858) * Fixed a bug in Follow-Up that caused some new text typed in by the user to be colored in the quoted-text color rather than the normal text color. Thanks to Michael McIntyre for reporting this bug. (#75993) * If a yenc block ends without a "=yend", or a uu block ends without an "end", treat the block as plaintext instead of encoded data. Looks like some M$ bashers are starting their posts with "begin 666" to tickle a similar bug in OE. :) Thanks to Jason Rumney and mr_p for reporting this bug. (#76358) Pan 0.11.2.90 (Mar 15 2002) NEW FEATURES * Added support for decoding yenc-encoded attachments! Thanks to Gabi Davar and Jeff Stedfast for contributing code and debugging to this effort. (#70368, 71330) UPDATES * The 'Download Articles' dialog now switches the articlelist to the group when the headers have been downloaded. Since this dialog is mostly used to sample a (potentially large) group, this seems the more intuitive approach. Thanks to Himanshu J. Gohel for suggesting this. (#66510) * Added Message-ID to Find Article's search criteria. Thanks to Pascal Valois for suggesting this. (#68332) * If an article no longer exists on the news server, tasks to read that article are now automatically removed from the Task Manager. Thanks to John Mellor for reporting this. (#71992) BUG FIXES * Fixed bug that caused multi-part binary posts with variable-length segment number to be seen as incomplete. Thanks to Craig Orsinger for reporting this. (#71647) * Fixed 0.11.2 bug where Pan could crash when a confirmation dialog was needed to confirm sending a message with issues. (#71440) * Fixed 0.11.2 bug that could cause the article count not to be reset to zero when the group was empties. Thanks to Craig Orgsinger for reporting this. (#71645) * Fixed long-standing bug that made it impossible to cancel an unread message. Thanks to Kerstin Rohlfs for leading me to this bug. (#64287) * Fixed UI bug in the message composer that caused Ctrl-space to send the message. (#71352) * When editing an existing server profile, the server name is now read-only. Thanks to Ned Boddy for reporting this bug. (#72432) * Better handling for the case where the 'Followup-To:' header contains an email address. Thanks to Mike Brodbelt for suggesting this. (#72608) * Fixed UI bug in the Preferences that caused the button not to activate when directly various fields. Thanks to John Mellor for reporting this. (#73180) * The Profile Editor now rejects double-quotes in the author's real name. Thanks to Martin Bruchanov for reporting this. (#68770) * Fixed a crash that occurred when sending mail from a system that didn't have a resolvable hostname. Thanks to T'aZ for reporting this bug. (#74129) * Fixed various memory leaks. Pan 0.11.2 (Feb 11, 2002) BUG FIXES * Fixed bug that incorrectly parsed some command-line arguments passed to the external editor when composing messages.

Thanks to Torbjorn Olofsson for reporting this bug. * Fixed 0.11.1.92 bug that caused the first article read to not be displayed if the user started up Pan in zoom mode. Thanks to Stefan Van Theemsche and Douglas Bollinger for reporting this bug. * Fixed several other 0.11.1.93 deadlock issues. Thanks to Gabi Davar for reporting some of these. * Now handles '~' in the TMPDIR environmental variable. Thanks to Jukka Salmi for suggesting this change. Pan 0.11.1.93 (Jan 29, 2002) BUG FIXES * Fixed 0.11.1.92 bug that caused cached articles to not be marked as read when the user read them. Thanks to Tõivo Leedjärv and Adrian von Bidder for reporting this bug. * Fixed 0.11.1.92 bug that made the "Edit Filter" dialog too wide to fit even on large screens. * Fixed 0.10.0 bug where new articles that automatically get deleted by user-defined rules could still appear in the article pane. * Fixed a long-standing NNTP server connection corruption bug. * Fixed a couple of long-standing GUI thread bugs. Pan 0.11.1.92 (Jan 21, 2002) NEW FEATURES * Added the option to have all threads expanded by default. Thanks to Bas Mevissen for submitting a patch for this feature.

Thanks to Avtar Marwaha for reporting this bug and to Marc Prud'hommeaux for providing this patch. * Fixed 0.10.0.93 bug that caused crossposts to not be marked as read when a single article or entire group is marked as read. * Fixed 0.10.0.93 memory leak that didn't free all article information on duplicate or user-deleted articles. * Fixed long-standing bug that required two left-clicks, rather than the typical one left-click, to pop down the context menu in the article pane. Thanks to Devin Carraway for reporting this bug. (#69170) Pan 0.11.1.91 (Jan 15, 2002) UPDATES * Slightly faster download and display of articles. BUG FIXES * Fixed bug that caused Pan to crash when reading an article. * Fixed bug that improperly hid new replies that were in collapsed threads. The top-level articles should have been showed in boldface to indicate that the thread had new replies. * Fix the "group->_article == NULL" assertion failure when loading a group. * Fixed gmime build errors that occurred on platforms that need to include alloca.h. Thanks to Alan Young for reporting this. * Fixed bug that caused the first group to be loaded during a Pan session to not be filtered properly. Thanks to Douglas Bollinger, Dan Hensley, and others for reporting this. Pan 0.11.1.90 (Jan 7, 2002) NEW FEATURES * The thread pane now looks many GUI mail clients in that it boldfaces articles with new replies and greys out read articles to show which articles are new, unread, and old. Also, when a thread is collapsed, the subject column will tell how many new replies are in the collapsed thread. Thanks to Jed Baer, Douglas Bollinger, and Andreas Ollinger for working these ideas through to consensus on the pan-users mailing list. * Added support for Microsoft Secure Password Authentication ("SPA") so that Pan will work with Microsoft NNTP servers.

Thanks very much to Christian Suder for reporting this bug. * Fixed crash that could sometimes occur when cancelling tasks or going offline from the Task Manager. * Fixed crash when overriding the system defaults for article foreground and background colors. This crash seems to be related to specific GTK themes.

Pan 0.11.0.92 (Nov 27 2001) UPDATES * If some bozo includes a windows pathname in the filename of an attachment, strip out that pathname. * Now also saving the group's 'Which Articles to Show' filter setting. Thanks to Uli Wachowitz for suggesting this feature. * Slightly faster downloading of article headers. BUG FIXES * Fixed bug that caused Pan to crash on startup if the newsrc file exists, but Pan is unable to read this (e.g. permissions). Thanks to Joris Lambrecht for reporting this bug. * Fixed posting bug. * Fixed bug that caused the CPU to peg at 100% when the user hit the "empty group" button. * Fixed bug that caused filtering on complete/incomplete multiparts to be inaccurate. * Fixed bug that caused non-visible filters to reappear on the filter menu when Pan was restarted.

Thanks to Andreas Ollinger for reporting this bug and to Joseph Turian for providing a patch. * Fixed bug that caused tasks to get stuck in the task manager. Thanks to Alex V Flinsch, Alan Young and Gabi Davar for reporting this bug. * Fixed awful bug that caused the server header cache directory to not be created, which caused new users to not be able to read articles in 0.11.0.90. D'oh! * Fixed 0.11.0 bug that, when an empty group was activated, Pan would go to the server twice for new headers instead of once. In addition to pointless load, if you were really unlucky there would be one or two new articles in the second load, marking the ones from the first run and leaving you scratching your head "how did I just download a batch of old articles from a new group?" :) Pan 0.11.0.90 (Nov 14, 2001) NEW FEATURES * Added new builtin filter: "Articles/Threads posted by Me" * When multiple articles are selected and the enter key is pressed, in addition to downloading and displaying the first article, the remaining selected articles are now also downloaded. Thanks to Cory Dodt for suggesting this. * Added "Filter by Message-ID" to the header pane toolbar filter. * Better at guessing a default news server for news users. UPDATES * Better data recovery in the case of a Pan or system crash. * Slightly faster threading of articles. BUG FIXES * Fixed crash that occurred when repeatedly loading the same group. * Better conformance to RFC977 2.4.1. This bug caused some binary attachments to be decoded improperly in 0.11.0.
